Special Cable Dispatch to The EVENING STAR
LONDON, Jan. 27.-Goschen's defeat In Liverpool
had been regarded by the Gladstonians as alto
gether too good to hope for. The news was re-
ceived at the different liberal headquarters last
night with the widest enthusiasm. Novelties
election has done almost as much general elec-
tion could to cleare the political atmosphere.
GoschenS private secretary and personal friend
telegraphs me the following explanation this
morning: ''The simply enormous Irish vote was
never before so well worked and polled, consider
ing the nature OF the constituency, most OF which
Is poor district, with migratory seafaring popu-
lation. The poll was very heavy. There is little
doubt the result could be reversed on petition
claiming the seat with scrutiny OF votes"
Curfously enough, Gladstone. who is quite wei
again. was dining at Brooks club, GoSchen's own
club, when the news reached him. One important
effect OF Goschen'S defeat viii be to make the gov
ernment more chary OF diSsolving parliament IL
they had carried Liverpool by a sweeping ajoriiy y
it would have confirmed the belief in the essenti
ally conservative sentiment OF the country, and on
every occasion they would have held the threat u
dissolution over the recalcitrant malcontents.

DISTRICT APPROPRIATIONS.
The Bill - it Passed the House.

The District appropriation bill was passed by the
House late Saturday afternoon substantially as re-
ported from the District committee and printed in
THE STAR few days ago. Mr.. Wilson explained
that the increase in the item for the improvement
and repairs TO the streets and highways OF the
District and the repairs, construction and main-
tenance OF bridges amounted to between $4,000
and $4,000. The chief increase in the bill, how
ever, he said, was that Of $6367O In the item for
the public schools of the District. He said that
the bin increased no salaries.
When that part Of the bill making appropriation
for the Improvement OF streets, &C., was reached,
Mr.. Buchanan inquired If there was any authority
given the Commissioners by the bill to extend
Massachusetts, avenue.
Mr.. Wilson replied that no such authority was
given; and Gen. Henderson, OF Iowa, said 1t was
due the commissioners to state that they had not
asked an appropriation for that purpose.
work on the county roads, &C.. was amended, upon
motion OF Mr. McComaS, by adding the provision
that the Tenleytown, 9TH street and BladenSburg
roads be first completed up to the limits OF the
District OF Columbia out OF this sum.
Mr.. Long raised the point OF order that the pro-
vision in relation to the salaries OF school teachers
thar the music teachers salary should not exceed
1850 per year, was a change of the law, which
now allows q, 600 to be paid.
The point OF order was sustained and the pro-
vision was stricken out
There were two or three verbal amendments,
one 70 make the appropriation for school buildings

vision for the sale of an unsuitable school lot.

men at $3.50. This Mr.. Wilson said, should be
$500. which was the salary now paid The COM
mttee, he said, had no desire to make reduction,
and he moved an amendment accordingly, which
was adopted.
